Everything about the wedding was wonderful and it starts and finished with the great place and great food. Morris is a fantastic person to work with. He is always positive, and completely professional. The venue is STUNNING and a great deal for the location. We had over 140 people travel to Miami from all over (15 states and 5 countries), and it was such a joy to treat them to a beautiful place with delicious food. I was very picky about the food, but Morris and his team truly delivered. You will be so happy you picked ELV! I can't recommend it enough!

This venue is magical. The attention they give from day 1 is amazing and exactly what a bride needs! I recommend this place 100% with my eyes closed.

Gosh I wish I could give them 10 starts!
My wedding was probably (and I say it humbly) the best wedding my friends and family has ever attended, and it is mostly because of Morris and the Emanuel team!
First lets start with the food - the BEST food I've ever had in a wedding. Like, Michelin stars worthy - taste and presentation!
Now I was a pretty hard bride to please, as I had no idea what do I really want, nor have I been to many weddings - Morris made it so easy for me to sit back and enjoy my event - he is professional, smart and just a really nice guy - you can totally tell he loves his job!
Overall, I couldn't ask for for a more elegant, beautiful and professional venue for my dream wedding!
